Respect the New World Order or Crumble Beneath It in Episode 8 of CrimeCraft: Bleedout

Share.

The saga of Sunrise City continues.

By IGN Staff

In Sunrise City, the only plan you can count on is having no plan at all. Thinking ahead will not guide you through the choppy politics of post-Bleedout society. The threats you face and the tools needed to defeat your enemies are ever-changing. Your best bet is to trust your gut and your guns in this new world order, because anything can happen. Episode 8 focuses on the dark political history of the Trenchton Trading Company and their bitter rivalry with the diabolical Claret Brothers. Someone is withholding information that threatens to shake the foundation – the truth about the Bleedout event that crippled the world's infrastructure.

Preview the eighth episode of CrimeCraft: Bleedout with this latest teaser trailer. Episode 8: Contingency Theory features an original story by Mike Kennedy (Star Wars, Superman, Alien vs Predator) and the art of Glenn Fabry (Hellblazer, Preacher, The Authority, Thor, Neverwhere). In the continuing content expansion to the Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Shooter, CrimeCraft, players will experience The New Age of Ruin through 10 consecutive weekly episodes featuring story content from a lineup of comic book industry superstars.

Episode 8 of the Bleedout Campaign kicks off this Saturday, February 19 at 7:00 PM EST (Midnight GMT/Server Time).

Eight years ago, every oil well on the planet ran dry, utterly dissolving the cornerstone of modern civilization. Global economies withered and nations fell like bone-dry dominoes, including the seemingly impervious United States. Caught in a zenith of chaos, Sunrise City now lies in the hands of a criminal cabal who may or may not hold the key to the future and the secrets behind the planet's tragic ruin. BLEEDOUT tells the frighteningly plausible tale of a world destroyed by its own greed and shortsightedness. Based on the Massively Multiplayer Online Shooter video game from Vogster Entertainment, this deluxe hardcover volume collects chapters drawn by some of the comic industry's hottest superstars. Written by Mike Kennedy (Star Wars, Superman, Alien vs Predator), this graphic novel presents the world of BLEEDOUT in all of its grim, pulp noir glory, with page after page of supplemental graphic and story material that further explores this tragic future, and the frighteningly familiar current events that led there in the first place.
